Bernardo MSB 360 H Semi-Automatic Metal Bandsaw

Bernardo MSB 360 H Semi-Automatic Metal Bandsaw

The Bernardo MSB 360 H is a professional semi-automatic bandsaw with increased cutting capacity, suitable for steel construction, mechanical workshops, and industrial processing. Thanks to the automatic arm lift with adjustable height, it optimizes work cycles and ensures efficiency even in series production. The robust, torsion-free frame, combined with ground linear slide guides, ensures parallel and precise cuts without vibrations. With a variable cutting speed from 20 to 100 m/min, a hydraulic vise, and an adjustable hydraulic cylinder, it is suitable for various materials and cross-sections. Safety features include automatic blade breakage control and automatic shutdown at the end of the cut. With a capacity of up to 520 x 380 mm at 90°, a 4800 mm blade, and a 3.0 kW motor, it represents a robust and powerful machine, suitable for heavy-duty work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an automatic (V) and semi-automatic (H) saw?

Automatic versions (MSB with suffix V) have a fully motorized blade descent with programmable cutting speed and automatic return — the operator positions the workpiece, starts the cycle, and the machine cuts and raises without intervention. Semi-automatic versions (H) have motorized descent but require the operator to manually start each cycle. Both offer superior cutting quality compared to manual versions.

What cutting speed should be used for stainless steel?

For AISI 304 stainless steel, use the lowest available speed (20–30 m/min) with active coolant. Higher speeds cause blade overheating, sticking, and rapid wear. Also, reduce the downfeed force of the saw head compared to mild steel.

Are replacement blades available?

Yes. Bi-metal blades in various tooth configurations for all MSB versions are available with 3–5 working days shipping. Please specify the model for the correct length.

Is coolant necessary for cutting mild steel?

For single cuts on mild steel (S235/S275) up to 100 mm, coolant is not essential. For series production or sections over 100 mm, coolant significantly increases blade life and cut quality. For stainless steel, coolant is always necessary.
